Review of Rovaniemi’s 6-hour snowmobile safari, with wilderness riding, campfire lunch, warm gear, costs, tips, and practical advice.

“An all day snowmobile tour of beautiful nature. Our guide was Patrick and we had a great time. Pick ups & drop off are well organized and they provide all the necessary gears. In addition to an organized drive through the forest etc. we were given two occasions to "freestyle" on a large open space! Also you can switch drivers in the middle. We had reindeer stew as lunch and it was delicious! Nice break to rest a bit and warm up before completing rest of the journey. It was one of our favorite experiences in our trip to Rovaniemi!”

We had a big buffet lunch with many options and we spend the evening relaxing in an authentic sauna and eating a smoked salmon and veggies for dinner. 100% percent recommended.

You just need to show up and they take care of you. We were a group of 11 and had 2 guides Alessandro and Valentina. Both were very knowledgeable, caring and friendly. I want to especially thank Alessandro - my wife was a solo driver and for some reason her snowmobile wasn't going as fast as others even with full throttle. But he was so sweet that he stayed back with her, didn't rush her at all and made sure to keep…”
